Make a change this year – swap some of the beige food on your plates Read more…

5 things to STOP doing: Trying to please everyone Fearing change Living in the past Putting yourself down Overthinking Imagine if we did these things all the time? How much it could/does control our lives. I have been through stages where they have, and it’s crippling. It means you’re never truly happy.
